You're right. I know I'm addicted to my iPhone. I know I buy a lot of apps. I do it because I'm bored. If I don’t do this, I'll ask Randy for dating tips. Or play a joke on Sadie, or pester Darlene, or ask Armstrong for a raise. Where did everyone go? What about my intervention? Thwack!

Which woman did you play Xbox 360 with? If you tell me the truth, I'll show mercy. Mumble mumble. I can't understand you. Mumble, Darlene, mumble. Did you say Darlene? Darlene? The woman of your dreams?! That Darlene?! Were there high scores involved?! I'm sorry. So terribly sorry.

Do I have to tell Laurel that I played video games with Darlene? Yes. In your eyes, playing video games is sacred. You have compromised your relationship with Laurel by playing with another woman. The truth is hard. But it's the only way. What if it was just physical? I never emotionally connected to the console! Weirdo.

You played Xbox 360 with Darlene. That's your confession? I'm a loser. Do you didn't cheat on Laurel. You just played a video game. Are you nuts? Maybe if it had been the Nintendo Gamecube, or the original Playstation. But the 360? HOJ. Have you seen the graphics on the 360?! You need inpatient care.

You cheated on Laurel. With Darlene. What?! You fooled around with Darlene? No. Worse. Much worse. We played Xbox 360. Please tell me that's a filthy term I've never heard of. Hours of video games! I'm a cad!

Darlene, you want to go for a walk? Sure. Just a quick one. House of Java .net. Of course. A casual walk. That's it. We'll catch up. Then have drinks, dinner, then fly to Vegas for a quick nuptials. I'm actually mostly kidding. I actually almost missed your persistence.

Darlene? Rudy? I heard you might be hanging out here. I thought I'd come by just to say hello and see how you're doing. That's nice. Coffee King. I love you. Hence Coffee King. House of Java.

I'm here for Darlene Desai. Please tell her Rudy Park is bearing gifts. No can do. Darlene is one of our valuable associates who we've rewarded in these difficult economic times with two days a week of unpaid personal time. Wow. You corporate folks have an interesting way of putting things. Security will gently boot you.

I'm not a total idiot. I have self-awareness. I know I can act destructively when I'm restless. But this is different. I don't see what is destructive about visiting Darlene, my unrequited true love, when I've already got a serious girlfriend. See how self aware I am? you're standing on my foot.

Rudy stands outside the law firm of Darlene, his unrequited love. Is he restless and brave enough to go inside and profess his feelings? Or is he a total wimp? What? What'd I say? Pipe down, inside voice! You look sharp today. Act now.

This is it. The law firm where Darlene works. I'm dating Laurel. We're falling for each other. It would be very destructive to go find Darlene. But it would be fun and exciting. The inside voice is so reasonable. Don't forget flowers.

I'm bored and broke. My gadgets seem old and outdated. I can't buy anything new. I can't work because the economy stinks. I'll just die of boredom. Hold on. Surely you can think of some other exciting and self-destructive activity to distract you from facing your real problems. Ooh, my inside voice has an idea. What's Darlene up to?

I'm Herbert. Darlene. I'm busy. I noticed that. You look intense. Are you one of those people working herself to death? You're not going to have a heart attack or something? I'd just hate to witness a horrible event like that. It would be very rude of you, frankly. Not enjoying the conversation.

Long time no see, Darlene. That was by design. I've booked you under mad, passionate midlife crisis fling with a guy my family and friends would disapprove of. That's scheduled for March 2019 - February 2020. But if you say anything dumb between now and then that renders you unattractive, I'll have to replace you. It'd be tough to vet a sub at this late a date. I don't know the meaning of the word dumb ... tough, but not impossible.

Hey Darlene, have you ever sued anyone for libel? Not yet. But it is on my bucket list. I've scheduled if for January 19th, 2032. Right after "visit Machu Picchu" and right before "renovate and flip a house." I firmly believe in planning ahead. I've got everything mapped out. Go ahead, try me. March 1st, 2075. Reincarnate as a level-24 mature soul.

Hi Darlene. Was that me you were waving at? Yes. Step half an inch closer, Rudy. This is a courtesy reminder of our upcoming midlife crisis appointment. Our what? I have you booked for "mad passionate fling with someone my friends and family would disapprove of," for March of this year through February of 2018. We start next month. That's enough time for you to firm your chest and arms up to a semi-acceptable level of near-manliness. It's also enough time for you to tattoo-up. I just emailed you an autocad blueprint with the designs and the specific locations on your body where they're to be scrawled ... and then she gave me a list of sweet nothings to whisper to her. My advice is to be very indignant about all this, beginning after February of 2018.

So, what should we have for dinner tonight, Darlene? What? How about tofu burgers? You know how we love those. We? I could barbecue, we could invite the Johnsons and the Changs, and then maybe we could all cool off in the pool, throw some darts … Are you ok? Why are you talking like we're a couple? We've never even gone on a date and we never, ever will. You're right, maybe we shouldn't invite the Johnsons and the Changs. They're not getting along. Your "talk like you're already together" advice is bogus. Giving you advice is like giving a monkey my car keys. |

Darlene, would you like to have lunch with me? Darlene. Lunch. Noon. Sandwiches. Lemonade. Be there. Hi, Darlene. Say, you've got to eat. I've got to eat. We have a lot in common. Stop rehearsing and get back to work. You wouldn't want to go out with me ... would you? |
